Chapter 610: To Korea

The "Golden Dragon Award" is a very authoritative and important award in China, which has attracted the attention of the public and the media. After the award ceremony, various related reports were also released.

In the film category, the four awards that have attracted the most attention are the actor, actress, best director and best picture. In previous years, the reports on the attribution of the "Golden Dragon Award" were mainly based on the attribution and comments of these four awards, but the content of these four awards is more than all the other awards combined.

However, due to Xiao Yao's existence, the situation is slightly different this year.

First of all, Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao, the mother and son, won the award together at the same "Golden Dragon Award", and they are both awards for new humans, which are the first scenes to appear in the world's Chinese and even the world film industry, which is naturally very topical. In media reports, it is indispensable to bring out this special matter and discuss it, and some will find some relatively close situations in film history to make a comparison and explanation, so Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao occupy a lot of space in the media's news reports because of this matter.

Secondly, the Best Newcomer Actor Award is given to a newcomer actor who starred in a movie for the first time, as a newcomer actor, Xiao Yao's age is not special, but he directly played the leading role in the first movie for the first time, and he is still the only actor, which is still rare. Among the five nominees who won the "Golden Dragon Award" Best Newcomer Actor Award this time, only Xiao Yao played the leading role in the movie, and the other four nominees all played supporting roles. And it was Xiao Yao, the only nominee who served as the big male lead, who won the award, which is also a very rare situation, and there are also some topics.

Finally, Xiao Yao's revelations on the red carpet are also very topical. During the red carpet show, in addition to the host and fans, there are also many photographers and reporters from various media. Xiao Yao announced that an animated film written and directed by himself was in production, which was not only heard by Lu Ke and fans, but also by many media reporters at that time.

A young man in his early twenties wrote and directed an animated film, which is still a feature film ready to be released in theaters. Even though Xiao Yao has always had the title of demon and has made short films before, when they heard the news, these reporters were extremely shocked. Although Xiao Yao's work on animated films has nothing to do with this year's "Golden Dragon Award", after all, it broke out on the red carpet of the "Golden Dragon Award", so when many media reported on the "Golden Dragon Award", they also reported the news as related lace news.

Taken together, Xiao Yao's overall weight in the news related to the "Golden Dragon Award" reported by various media is considerable, almost to the same extent as the actor and actress.

In terms of the length of media reports, Xiao Yao is almost close to the level of this year's actor and actress, but from the perspective of topicality, the discussion of Xiao Yao on the Internet is not comparable to the sum of this year's actor and actress.

The winners of this year's "Golden Dragon Award" are two young and middle-aged actors in their thirties and forties. First of all, in terms of traffic, Xiao Yao is more than a little bit stronger than the two, and in terms of follow-up topicality, Xiao Yao is also much stronger than the two.

After the "Golden Dragon Award" ceremony, each award has its own attribution. These are established facts, and no amount of talk will change the result, and everyone will discuss it for a while, and it will not last long. Xiao Yao is different, the news of the production of animated movies that broke out on the red carpet further attracted the attention of the media and netizens.

From the perspective of music, in addition to his own original songs, Xiao Yao has also written and produced many songs for others, but he has hardly sung the songs written by others for him. In terms of awards, although Xiao Yao has also won the "Golden Disc Award" Best Male Singer award, but in terms of weight and quantity, Xiao Yao has won more creative awards than singing awards, so in the eyes of music fans, Xiao Yao's talent in creation is greater than in performance.

From the perspective of film and television, Xiao Yao has written, directed and acted in short films, written scripts for TV series, and shot MVs for his own songs as a director, although MVs and short films are not the mainstream of film and television, and the screenwriters of TV series also cooperate with others, but at least it also shows that Xiao Yao also has good ability in writing and directing film and television.

In terms of music, many people think that Xiao Yao's creative talent is greater than his acting talent, so in terms of film and television, is Xiao Yao the same? Many fans are also inclined to affirm.

Xiao Yao won the Best New Actor in two important awards for TV series and movies in Huaxia, and he is obviously very good in terms of acting, so what will the animated film he directed and wrote look like?

The audience and netizens had speculation and discussion, and the media reporters naturally had a task and sent an invitation to Xiao Yao for an interview.

The media reporter wanted to interview Xiao Yao about the animated film, which should be said to be a good thing for the promotion of the movie, but due to the wrong time, Xiao Yao still did not agree.

Now that the post-production of the film has not been completed, it has not been submitted for review, and the schedule has not been determined, so it is too early to do publicity at this time. Xiao Yao's mention on the red carpet aroused the public's interest, and it was already a good pre-publicity. Now everyone is discussing it enthusiastically, just because I don't know what Xiao Yao's animated movie looks like. This almost has a bit of a "hunger marketing" flavor, and Xiao Yao will definitely not make some of the details of the movie public at this time, so those reporters who want to interview are rejected again.

The formal interview invitation failed to get their wish, and some unwilling reporters resorted to tracking and squatting to dig. Xiao Yao returned to Shencheng after the "Golden Dragon Award" award ceremony, so the reporter's tracking and squatting were basically carried out in Shencheng.

Xiao Yao's residence in Shencheng is relatively secret, although the internal environment was revealed in the live broadcast, but the specific address was not disclosed, Xiao Yao also paid attention to this aspect, and did not let the reporter easily follow him to his residence. However, Xiao Yao's school and place of work are public, so those reporters who squatted in Yin Xi's studio have some gains.

After attending the award ceremony of the "Golden Dragon Award", Xiao Yao's job is to continue the dubbing work of animated films. Those reporters who were squatting outside the studio also took pictures of He Ying, Huang Shi and some voice actors entering and leaving Yin Xi's studio several times.

Huang Shi and He Ying are both well-known actors, and Yin Xi's studio has a business that helps artists with image design, and it is not surprising that they come and go occasionally, but it is a little strange to come every day for a few days. In addition, although those professional voice actors are not well-known among the public, there are still people who know them among entertainment journalists.

Huang Shi and He Ying both participated in the dubbing program "Sound Immersion" with Xiao Yao, and some others are professional voice actors, and then think of Xiao Yao said that animated films are in post-production, and for animated films, dubbing may also be placed in post-production, so those reporters guessed that these people were the voice actors of Xiao Yao's animated film.

Xiao Yao is reluctant to be interviewed, but Huang Shi and He Ying are not. After this speculation, some reporters blocked Huang Shi and He Ying outside Yin Xi's studio for interviews and verification. Xiao Yao didn't have any special requirements for dubbing Xiao Yao's animated film, and both of them generously admitted it, but about the name and theme of the animated film, the two were tight-lipped at Xiao Yao's request.

Although I still haven't heard any information about the content of Xiao Yao's animated film, I finally have a lineup of voice actors, and two of them are also star actors who have been very popular recently, such news can also temporarily satisfy the curiosity of some netizens. These reporters can barely make a difference when they publish these reports.

Another week or so passed after the awards ceremony, and the dubbing of the animated film was complete.

It is worth mentioning that the voice cast of Xiao Yao's animated film is not only the two star actors He Ying and Huang Shi and some professional voice actors in the industry, but also two voice actors who play two-dimensional on the live broadcast platform to join in.

These two voice actors are two of the three voice actors that Xiao Yao has contacted when he was considering the vocal guests for the finals of "Sound Immersion". After that contact, although Xiao Yao did not choose any of them as a vocal guest in the end, he still had a deep impression of their performance in dubbing. When selecting voice actors this time, Xiao Yao did not find suitable candidates for all the roles from the selection recommended by Huang Shi and He Ying, so he remembered the two of the three voice actors who were better in Chinese and English.

Although Xiao Yao's last time he asked them to be a guest speaker, he didn't succeed in the end, but judging from Xiao Yao's performance to them during that time, they felt that Xiao Yao was still very sincere. Especially after watching the finals of "Sound Immersion", they also understood the reason why Xiao Yao did not choose them, and was sure that Xiao Yao was not playing with them. This time, Xiao Yao invited him to dub again, and they all agreed without hesitation.

For these two Internet celebrity anchors who have never shown their faces in the live broadcast, those media reporters who are squatting on the guard don't know each other, and naturally no one comes to interview them, so Xiao Yao's dubbing lineup also includes Internet celebrity anchors, and the media has not reported it.

Both anchors have their own live broadcast rooms, those media reporters have no interviews, and they also have their own channels to release news, which can be made public by themselves. However, at Xiao Yao's request, they did not disclose the matter in their live broadcast room.

The participation of online anchors in the production of theatrical films is also a historical precedent in China, which is a precedent in this world. The announcement of this news by the two anchors will definitely cause a certain amount of buzz and help them attract a group of fans, but the official promotion of the movie has not yet begun, and it may take a month or two or even longer, and now is not the best time to announce it.

For the two anchors, if it is announced now, fans will not be able to see their performance immediately, the popularity will soon drop, and the fans attracted are easy to lose, so it is not the best choice. For movies, now that the media has announced the participation of He Ying and Huang Shi and others in the dubbing of the movie, it is enough to attract the public's attention and maintain the heat, and when the movie is determined, publicity before the release is the time to really make efforts in publicity. At that time, it will be announced that the network anchor will join the movie dubbing, whether it is for the movie or for the two anchors, it is the most profitable choice.

At present, only A Zi has successfully transformed from an online anchor to a star, Chen Beila and others can only be regarded as barely touching, there is such a trend, most of the online anchors still belong to a type of person who is sandwiched between celebrities and amateurs. There is a certain gap between the two voice actors and anchors such as Chen Beila, and Xiao Yao is even more like a mountain in front of them. Before coming, the two had planned to do whatever Xiao Yao asked them to do, not to mention that Xiao Yao also explained the reason to them, and considering their interests, of course the two willingly agreed.

After the dubbing of the animated film is over, Xiao Yao's next step is to edit and score the music.

In post-production, a rough cut is usually cut out to make the composer's score, and after the soundtrack is completed, some adjustments are made to the music. Xiao Yao's animated film is based on the template of the previous life, the script, storyboards, and storyboards are all very detailed, and it is expected that the final film will be a movie of about 90 minutes, and all the materials are only about 120 minutes, which is already equivalent to the length of other movies after rough cuts, and even several edits. So Xiao Yao doesn't plan to do rough cuts anymore, but is ready to make the soundtrack directly.

Generally speaking, the soundtrack work of a film is definitely not a one-person business, but a collaborative effort of one department. Usually the bigger the film, the more people who work behind the scenes, and the more people who work on the soundtrack. However, in some small-budget movies, it is not uncommon for one person to do all the work of the soundtrack.

Xiao Yao's animated film is definitely not a small cost, but Xiao Yao's ability in music is very comprehensive, and he is also very energetic, and he has the template of the original version of his previous life, so Xiao Yao still plans to work on the soundtrack of the movie alone, at least in terms of creation, by himself.

Such a decision also created conditions for Xiao Yao's next trip. Two days after the dubbing work was completed, Xiao Yao took the film materials and went to South Korea with Ye Jiaying and the representatives of the producer of "127 Hours".

"127 Hours" was released in theaters in China at the end of last year, with a total box office of nearly 400 million, and received five nominations at the "Golden Dragon Awards", and finally won two of them. But whether it is at the box office or in terms of awards, the journey of the movie "127 Hours" is not over yet. In the overseas market, this movie has not yet begun to exert its strength.

Ye Jiaying told Xiao Yao a long time ago that the idea of taking this film to a foreign film festival has been in progress. However, although Ye Jiaying is still satisfied with her debut film and is more confident in its prospects, she does not have much ambition, and does not consider European and American film festivals, and is only ready to participate in several film festivals in Asia.

Like in previous lives, there are four countries in the world with famous film festivals in Asia, namely China, Japan, India and South Korea. The first three of them all have international A-category film festivals, while the South Korean one has B-category. Ye Jiaying did not plan to take "127 Hours" to participate in the Indian International Film Festival, but only planned to participate in three film festivals in China, Japan and South Korea.

In terms of time, the world's Korean International Film Festival is the earliest, in March every year, so Ye Jiaying's first stop is to go to South Korea.

In the previous life, the B-category international film festival in South Korea was held in Busan, called the Busan International Film Festival, but in this life, the venue of this international film festival in South Korea is not in Busan, but in its capital. Like the previous life, the capital of South Korea used to be called Seoul, and later changed its name to Seoul, but in this life, it was not in 2005, but in 2007.

The Seoul International Film Festival in this world is divided into competition and non-competition units, and in terms of awards, there are basically only awards for directors and films, and there are no awards for actors. If it was someone else's movie, Xiao Yao would probably not go, but this is Ye Jiaying's first time going abroad to participate in a film festival, and Xiao Yao, as a son, still has to help her stand on the platform.

In addition, Xiao Yao has two friends in South Korea. One is Hong Xiuyan, who Xiao Yao has been shouting Nuna, and the other is Liu Youyuan, who met on "Singer". Both of them have invited Xiao Yao to South Korea to play more than once, usually Xiao Yao is too lazy to go to South Korea, this time there is a chance to go to South Korea, Xiao Yao can also go to meet these two friends.
